Wednesday, 25 March 1953
Ken Roberts scores to earn Villa a draw and end a run of two losses but it's now one win in seven as referee Bowers somehow fails to award Villa a stonewall penalty.
Villa make it nine wins, eleven draws and thirteen defeats in thirty three division one games so far this season.
Villa drop to 17th.
